I’ve composed my list of actionable items I can implement to move forward and up. So far, I’ve started meditating at night for ten minutes with my new singing bowl I received at Christmas and I’m burning 🔥 a candle at sunset for a half an hour to activate my intentions with fire. #manifesting

After reading your post, someone needs to make drinkable bacon. Or bacon flavored coffee. Enjoy my recent photo of matcha latte in a cozy coffee shop on Koblenz during the Christmas markets.

My chocolate Yorkie, Jack, still goes outside in the cold weather. Their fur is designed for cold weather. They can stay out for a while without getting cold. He especially enjoyed checking in the UPS packages that get delivered to our home.

Another great picturesque place near Pittsburgh is the Falling Waters home. It’s one of the most magnificent architectural works of art and a UNESCO site. Frank Lloyd Wright designed and built this home at 67.

Did you know that this enormous Christmas tree is a yearly tradition post WWII? The Norwegians cut down a large tree over 100 feet high from the Black Forest and send it to Strasbourg, France each year as a thank you for freeing their country from the grips of Hitler and his army.
Merry Christmas!
